Can I get an AT w/SCO XENIX to read Altos 586 floppies?

Does anyone have a driver or utility that will let me read a floppy made
on an Altos 586 (tar or mount format) on an IBM-AT running the latest version
of SCO's XENIX?

This would save me from transferring 30 Meg of data with Kermit, so I'd be
willing to pay a reasonable price.

The Altos writes DSDD 96tpi disks, so it is theoretically possible.  I'm not
interested in how to go about writing a program to do it.  I want to get a
finished program.

Anybody got one?
